The ICE 2013 in Japan, July 24-28

Mao's new SP is wonderful!! Both the exhibition and SP that she did in Osaka were much better than the performances she put out in Nagoya (probably, she was too nervous the first time around).
I love the second lavender outfit more than the first one, but they're both quite lovely.

That music really does suit her skating to a T. Just the way she moves with it (even with the pauses), this will be a spellbindinging program and a great choice for her during an Olympic season. There is a poise and sophistication and more mature line than the last time she skated to this. I really hope she gets those freaking jumps under control this season because her skating has never been more beautiful than it is right now IMO.

^^^Luuuuuuuurve skaters acting like this. I'm sure they are totally enjoying doing this and in good relationships each other. I think I knew Jeff, Maia, Kaitlyn, Kanako and maybe Jeremy are good at doing this kind of work. It's a kind of happy surprising Kevin, Mao, Adelina and Gracie are doing good jobs. Well done and thank you ShibShibs. How nice to see Narumi still enjoying herself after the split. Hope Tran is doing well these days, too.(Yes I know Purich/Tran are planing to compete at the Quebec Summer Championships )

In reference, it was also so much fun to see the official twitter of Chukyo TV which was one of the organizers of the Aichi shows tweeted like "OK skaters. We'll provide more sandwitches next time".

As I heard Alex let the audience jump all together and act as if they're surprised at something after the last show of the tour and recorded them, so I believe this first story would be continued and the next video is COMING SOON.

As a fan, I really appreciate how much Maia and Alex are doing to help present skaters in ways that fans all over can really enjoy. Both of them have concept creation credits. Maia seems to do a lot of the camera work as well. Alex seems like a very capable Director as he is able to get the other skaters to participate, and even the audience!

In reference for the people who want see more performances from THE ICE shows, Chukyo TV is airing the "perfect virsion" TV program on Sat this weekend. The "perfect virsion" used to involve all of the performances skaters did in the Chukyo shows. Chukyo TV will upload the videos on the official channel of THE ICE on the youtube sooner or later they finished airing the TV program.

Chukyo TV used to record both Aichi shows and Osaka shows. But this year Fuji TV recorded Osaka shows. This official channel seems to be organized by Chukyo TV. So it's pretty much doubtful that they upload the programs the skaters did in Osaka shows only. But there is some hope since Chukyo TV uploaded the programs which were not aired in their TV programs...we'll see in a few weeks.

Correction:
Thank you tut88! I added W/p's video that I forgot. Actually they uploaded so many vids so I forgot one of them.
